Sint-Bonifatiuskerk, Catholic church in Amsterdam East, Netherlands

The Sint-Bonifatiuskerk stood at Kastanjeplein, featuring three naves and a tower that reached 65 meters in height.

Between 1884 and 1886, architect Evert Margry constructed this Neo-Gothic church for 151,405 Dutch guilders at the intersection of Wijttenbachstraat and Linnaeusstraat.

The church interior contained a Maarschalkerweerd organ installed in 1902, along with a Maria altar and communion bench designed by architect A.C. Bleijs.

Due to declining attendance, the congregation relocated to a smaller chapel within the rectory in 1982, leading to the demolition of the main building in 1984.

The clock faces from the original church tower now rest atop a lattice mast on the nursing home that occupies the former church site.
